Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Semliki Forest virus, Biochemistry, Molecular biology, RNA and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. The study incorporates disciplines such as Virology, Alphavirus, Guanylyltransferase, Cell membrane and Viral replication in addition to Semliki Forest virus. His work on Peptide sequence, Amino acid, Escherichia coli and GTP' is typically connected to Bacillus subtilis as part of general Biochemistry study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His Molecular biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cell nucleus, Rubella virus, Fusion protein and Capsid. His work carried out in the field of RNA brings together such families of science as NS3 and Capping enzyme. The RNA-dependent RNA polymerase study combines topics in areas such as Transfection and Vacuole.

His most cited work include:

  • Viral RNA replication in association with cellular membranes. (327 citations)
  • T7 vectors with modified T7lac promoter for expression of proteins in Escherichia coli (236 citations)
  • Secretion of interferon by Bacillus subtilis. (205 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Leevi Kääriäinen focuses on Semliki Forest virus, Biochemistry, Molecular biology, RNA and Virology. His Semliki Forest virus study combines topics in areas such as Alphavirus, Virus, Capsid, Mutant and Sindbis virus. His Molecular biology research also works with subjects such as

  • Messenger RNA that connect with fields like Subgenomic mRNA,
  • Cytoplasm together with Polysome.

His RNA research includes elements of Guanylyltransferase, In vitro and Polymerase. His studies in Virology integrate themes in fields like HeLa, Cell culture, Antibody and Microbiology. His RNA-dependent RNA polymerase research integrates issues from Non-coding RNA, RNA editing, Viral replication and Protease.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Semliki Forest virus (64.80%)
  • Biochemistry (48.80%)
  • Molecular biology (46.40%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1997-2010)?

  • Semliki Forest virus (64.80%)
  • RNA (36.80%)
  • RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (20.00%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of study are Semliki Forest virus, RNA, RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, Biochemistry and Virology. His Semliki Forest virus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Alphavirus, Molecular biology, Subgenomic mRNA, Viral replication and RNA triphosphatase. His studies deal with areas such as Cytoplasm, Threonine, Guanylyltransferase, Wild type and RNA polymerase as well as Molecular biology.

His study in RNA is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Capping enzyme, Antiserum, NS3 and Kinase activity. His RNA-dependent RNA polymerase research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Vero cell, Integral membrane protein, Vesicle, Phosphorylation and Kinase. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Messenger RNA, Vacuole and NSP1.

Between 1997 and 2010, his most popular works were:

  • Viral RNA replication in association with cellular membranes. (327 citations)
  • Biogenesis of the Semliki Forest Virus RNA Replication Complex (203 citations)
  • Semliki Forest virus mRNA capping enzyme requires association with anionic membrane phospholipids for activity. (162 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His primary areas of investigation include Semliki Forest virus, RNA, Alphavirus, RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and Cell membrane. His Semliki Forest virus research entails a greater understanding of Biochemistry. As a part of the same scientific family, Leevi Kääriäinen mostly works in the field of RNA, focusing on Capping enzyme and, on occasion, Binding site, Protein biosynthesis, RNA virus and Integral membrane protein.

Leevi Kääriäinen works mostly in the field of Alphavirus, limiting it down to concerns involving Sindbis virus and, occasionally, Replicon, Membrane glycoproteins and Subgenomic mRNA. His work in RNA-dependent RNA polymerase addresses issues such as Virology, which are connected to fields such as Helicase, Degradosome and RNA Helicase A. His Molecular biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as RNA polymerase and RNA triphosphatase.
